On September 14th, 2019 at The Museum of Latin American Art (MOLAA) in Long Beach, CA the 1st Latinx Games Festival signaled an industry-wide call to action for Latinx representation throughout the video game industry. The 1st Latinx Games Festival was a success thanks to the support and sponsorship from video game industry titans like Niantic, Nintendo, Xbox, Amazon Games, Avalanche Studios and Unity.
